Why might I need this?
You’ve decided to prepare your court application for property settlement consent orders yourself. You’d like to know where to start and what to do. Or perhaps you’re already part way there, and, like most people approaching this process without a lawyer, just a tad confused…
There is no doubt. Preparing the suite of documents required for an Application for Consent Orders, getting it properly signed and then submitting it to the court is a difficult technical feat. It’s certainly achievable but you may need some direction, support and troubleshooting along the way.
